[Alex] [Remembrance of the 1st semester – 1] Orientation – Thompson Island

Now we are in the middle of Independent Activity Period(IAP), and friends from our sister programs (ZLOG, CGLOG) are enjoying this month with us. This brought me the all those memory of last 5 months with Mloggers, so I decided to post pictures from those times.

First posting is from the first official trips of Mlog, the Thompson Island Outbound!

In the Kendall T-Station, Mloggers are excited about our first official trip!

Mloggers are enjoying cool summer breeze on the boat heading for Thompson Island.

Finally arrived!

We are listening to the instruction and getting ready for the team-building games.

First game. All team members have to pass the spider net without touching it.

We were not allowed to use the same hole twice.

Second game. Find the way with the blindfold on.

The last game was getting out of the Thompsion Island with a custom-built(?) raft.

Daniel is preparing a bag to cover his important stuffs.

Now depart!

Is it going to work out?!!

Oh..... It is sinking....T-T

After these games, there was a really funny comedy show making fun of the experience of the first day, but unfortunately I could not take any good picture because it was a little too dark outside.

After all the official schedule were finished, we gathered together to celebrate the successful first day! I introduced Korean Soju to Mloggers, and Alexander introduced Vodka

2nd day

Morning walk along the coast of the island.

Shallom taught us the vision-building tool, and we are drawing our own vision structures.

Jianmin and Jullia are discussing about their dream.

Me holding my vision structure. This is composed of vision, mission, CSFs, gaps, and goals.

Thomas and I are making the pose we've learned in Thompson Island. They make this pose when the airplane flies by and people can't talk to each other well. haha

Yesterday, while some of Mloggers were talking to the Prof.Caplice, we found out that we are the first Mlog class which stayed a night in the island. I am not sure if that was the reason, but team spirit of Mlog Class of 2010 is the best!
